the highest and best category of human, in my opinion, is “when stuck on a long flight behind a screaming baby, plays peek-a-boo and makes funny faces to entertain child rather than getting mad or blaming parents.” few elected officials belong in this category but I believe Zohran does

Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.

After the Rain (Garden with Chickens in St. Agatha)
https://botfrens.com/collections/109/contents/28473
“After the Rain (Garden with Chickens in St. Agatha)” by Gustav Klimt depicts a serene garden scene where chickens roam freely on a lush, green lawn beneath tall trees. Unlike his typical ornamental and symbolic style, this piece reflects Klimt’s interest in landscapes, showcasing a peaceful countryside setting.

“If socialism is ever to beat capitalism… it must compete on the terrain where capitalism now harvests its deepest legitimacy: the promise of expanded agency, intensified creativity, worldmaking powers distributed (however unevenly, however cynically) into the texture of everyday life.”

A gravelly voice spoke from under the mayor's bed.

"I hear you need a monster hunter."

The mayor sat up.

"What? Who?"

"I'm a monster. I hunt. What do you need hunted?"

"Beklo the Ogre, but..."

"I'll bring you its head."

"How..."

"I am a monster under the bed. If it sleeps, I can find it."

A reflection of you, a reflection of me
And it’s all there to see…
But, oh, what can you do when she’s dressed in black?”

Consider Hasenclever’s Atelierszene (1836).
Image of the 1836 painting Atelierszene by Johann Peter Hasenclever (1810–1853), founder of the anti-academic and ironic form of genre painting in Germany. A realistically depicted scene of students at the Düsseldorf Art Academy, at work in a studio. Various objects lying on its floor convey a cluttered impression – a depiction prefigured by Adolph Schroedter in his 1832 painting Don Quixote Reading in His Study. A studio attendant enters with a coffee tray, followed by Carl Engel von der Rabenau, mimicking the plaster statue of the Borghese Gladiator opposite him. A letter with five seals peeks out from the attendant's apron. The diminutive Anton Greven, with his overly long mahlstick, presents a bottle of wine to street clothes garbed Joseph Wilms. The pose is sketched by Otto Grashof on the left and commented on, criticized, and observed by the others – particularly Wilhelm Joseph Heine, casually slumped on a chair. Since they are working from life here, the aids of academic instruction are superfluous: Hasenclever himself moves a headless mannequin. A large-format painting is pointedly turned towards the wall and used as a windbreaker, as the genre painters gathered here preferred medium and smaller formats. As such, they were relegated to the academy's Studio No. 1, which they – presumably with a sense of exile – named Sibiria. The title Sibiriae altera pars in an open book laid on the floor alludes to this. A map lying next to it indicates coffee houses and wine taverns in the vicinity of Düsseldorf. By largely contradicting the prevailing ideas about appropriate image content, the studio scene depicts an ironic portrait of friendship and a group of painters who addressed controversial social and political issues in the spirit of the Vormärz period, criticized the academicism of the Düsseldorf art academy, broke away from academic teaching content, and formed an opposition within the Düsseldorf school of painting.

Once again: there is zero valid reason to put a data center in space. In addition to the launch costs and inability to service them, you need significant cooling infrastructure. The only reason to do this is a) you are an idiot, or b) you are grifting money from idiots.
